Monkey Tricks

A fictional story based on a young woman on her journey through life with anxiety. It's a feel-good book about overcoming the internal battles she has with a metaphorical monkey in her head by seeking the help and support of 'her people'. Finding balance and regulating emotions sounds pretty straight-forward for most people. But Lou Grainger isn't most people.Monkey Tricks is a fictional story that follows main character Lou on her journey of life with anxiety. In this book I've included and visited a lot of relatable (and difficult) experiences with a good sense of humour. It all begins with a letter that she has written to her younger self, which she was recommended to do by her therapist. Although she was pretty reluctant, thinking the whole thing was silly and a waste of time, she was also desperate to get control of her mental health.However, when her therapist tells her the problem is that she has a monkey in her head, she wonders whether she's sitting on the right side of the clip-board. It sounds crazy, but it's actually true, metaphorically anyway. It controls her thoughts and emotions and generally just causes chaos to her life which she could do without. Learning to rein it in and get control of it instead so she can live her life more freely and with less worry is the goal.Monkey Tricks is a heart-warming story of self-discovery and overcoming life's struggles with the help of 'her people' and an awful lot of gin!
